Innholdsfortegnelse for 1909 i Woman's Day

Here at Woman’s Day we all have our special areas of expertise. I’m particularly zoned in on Aussie stars of the ’80s and ’90s and I’m also pretty clued up on recipe trends of the past decade, whereas my colleague Phil can tell you anything you ever wanted to know about lotto winners and serial killers (which never struck me as worrying until just now!). Our Deputy Editor Erin is like Rain Man when it comes to milestones in the British royal family 2000 onwards. She’s that freaky we use her as a party trick! This week you’ll find ALL our brainpower – Phil brings you a special on the world’s most gruesome murderers (p36), Erin enjoys more drama than ever as the Harry and Meghan saga kicks up a…

As his 80th birthday approaches, this year, serious concerns have been raised about Paul Hogan’s boozy ways. “People are worried he’s taking things a little bit too far” says a veteran red-carpet reporter who spied the Crocodile Dundee legend guzzling a glass of what looked to be sauvignon blanc as he entered the G’Day USA event in LA recently. At the event, Paul himself confirmed to journalists he drinks to deal with his lifestyle, which sees him jet between LA and Sydney for work. “I have a bloody mary and get on with it. It’s crummy. It’s awful,” he said. “The man likes a drink and he’s never made any secret about that,” a source close to Paul tells Woman’s Day. “But he’s no spring chicken any more, and it’s…

Elle Macpherson raised eyebrows last year when she started dating anti-vaccine campaigner Andrew Wakefield. Now it looks like she’s ramped up the romance as rumours abound that the pair are engaged. “Apparently he popped the question over Christmas,” a source tells Woman’s Day. “His divorce from his wife isn’t even final yet but he wanted to show Elle he has every intention of making her his wife as soon as possible. “Word from her inner circle is she didn’t hesitate to say yes and they’re expected to tie the knot the second his divorce is official.” The 54-year-old beauty and Andrew, 62 – who was banned from practising medicine after publishing a discredited study – have been dating for eight months. “People can’t believe Elle has fallen for Andrew,” says…

The clandestine affair between Ines and Sam finally begins during the couple’s getaway to the Gold Coast this week, but all might not be what it seems as whispers are circulating the pair’s romance is a showmance, entirely orchestrated by producers! In a MAFS first, the newlyweds – excluding Matt and Lauren, who opted to leave the experiment during Sunday night’s commitment ceremony – are flown to the Gold Coast for some fun and frivolity. However, Sam, 26, arrives at the Vibe Hotel without his wife Elizabeth, 27. “Liz is sick so isn’t allowed to be there at the beginning,” spills an insider. “And with Ines staying in a separate room to [her husband] Bronson, there’s nothing holding her back from executing her dream – to be with Sam.” Woman’s…

Jessika was declared “the new Davina Rankin” before the series had even started airing, but if the rumour mill is to be believed, the blonde bombshell eclipses Davina’s husband-stealing antics by a country mile. The 27-year-old part-time model reportedly gets close to three other grooms, including yet-to-be-introduced intruder Dan, after things start fizzling with her husband Mick, 31. “It was pretty much turned into Love Island with her,” reveals one source. According to the source, while Jessika genuinely finds some parts of Mick’s personality charming, she didn’t see them being a long-term prospect. The first groom to catch Jess’ attention is Nic. Our insider claims the pair started flirting with one another almost immediately, and developed a close relationship behind Nic’s wife Cyrell’s back. “Some of the brides noticed it…

It’s a situation familiar to many married couples – one of you wants to leave the party early, and for the other it’s just getting started. But for Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth, their tiff over when it was time to head home from Jennifer Aniston’s raucous 50th birthday bash might have been the final straw for their marriage. Woman’s Day can reveal our witness saw Jim ditch the Sunset Tower party in LA in “a definite huff” long before his wife of seven years, leaving her to hit the open bar without him. Several hours later, when Reese tottered out in her sky-high black heels as the party was coming to a close, the 42-year-old actress was seen by many onlookers falling down the stairs. “She laughed it off,”…

NATHAN HARVEY He became a household name in the ’90s but now the former model and TV host is busking on the streets for a living. And for the past eight years heartthrob Nathan has been pushing jets around for take-off at Sydney’s Kingsford Smith Airport! Now, Nathan has taken 12 months off from his dispatcher job with Virgin to pursue his dream of being a singer. With an itinerary that’s taking him around the country, Nathan, 47, says he’ll be singing for his “dinner and petrol money”. What’s more, Nathan has witnessed first-hand how tough outback Australians are doing it and hoping to bring some joy to drought-affected farmers with free impromptu concerts on their properties. “I went to Packsaddle Roadhouse, out near Broken Hill, to sing for some…

1. DETOXIFICATION Research has shown our bodies will sweat out toxic substances – and infra-red saunas are a safe and calm method of doing so. The deep, penetrating heat causes a rise in core temperature, resulting in a detoxifying sweat at the cellular level, where toxins reside. This will help flush out any nasty contaminants. 2. MUSCLE PAIN RELIEF Infra-red saunas are a natural alternative to pain relief that will soothe muscles, relieve tension and speed up recovery time. The heat will penetrate joints, muscles and tissues, increase circulation and speed up oxygen flow. It will also reduce inflammation to allow your body to function to the best of its ability. 3. IMPROVED CIRCULATION The high heat increases your heart rate, which means your circulation will speed up as a…

After starring in Aussie dramas like Wentworth, Rush and Tangle, Catherine McClements is now swinging into the ’60s with the hotly anticipated spin-off series Ms Fisher’s Modern Murder Mysteries. Starring alongside Wanted’s Geraldine Hakewill, Catherine, 53, plays Birdie Birnside, a member of The Adventuresses’ Club, which Peregrine Fisher, niece of Phryne, joins. The Silver Logie Award winner chats to Woman’s Day about her exciting new role. Tell us a bit about your character Birdie... Birdie came into her own during the war.

She might be Australian acting royalty, but Asher Keddie displayed some “very Hollywood diva behaviour” in Sydney recently, according to a source. The Cry star, 44, was left feeling enraged after she was asked for photo identification at Bondi’s QT hotel. “It was that classic case of, ‘Don’t you know how I am?’ She didn’t understand why she was being asked for ID,” reveals an onlooker. “She started getting irritated and told the person behind the desk that she stayed there all the time.” Eventually the actress showed her ID, but Asher was left reeling by the confrontation, says the onlooker.…

Just days following Portia de Rossi’s public meltdown as she left a restaurant in floods of tears, her wife Ellen DeGeneres has been spotted out and about without her wedding ring! “Ellen won’t go anywhere without her wedding ring, so it’s definitely set off alarm bells, especially after Portia was so upset,” a Hollywood source tells Woman’s Day. It’s fuelled rumours it could be all over for the 61-year-old and her actress wife, who’ve been together for more than a decade. “As much as they try to brush off all the speculation around the state of their marriage, everyone knows they’ve had their issues,” adds our source. As Woman’s Day previously reported, the pair recently clashed over Ellen’s decision to renew her talk show contract. While Portia, 46, is ready…

Hot on the heels of Bachelor lovebirds Sam Wood and Snezana Markoski announcing they’re expecting their second child, host Osher Gunsberg has revealed he’s also welcoming a baby with wife Audrey Griffen. The Bachelor presenter, 44, took to Instagram last week to introduce “Chickpea”, who is due in August. While it’s Osher’s first biological child, he has had plenty of parenting practice as stepfather to Audrey’s teenage daughter Georgia. “For me, meeting Audrey saved my life, meeting Georgia gave my life a purpose and direction that I never expected... now to have the chance to share with them the experience of bringing up a child together is just incredible.”…

We hear quite a few of the couples had fun indulging in the free-flowing booze, with many drunken antics, most notably a female-only game of spin the bottle. It’s believed Mick and Jess got into a huge domestic, with Jess hitting the roof after learning Mick had boasted to all the boys that he and Jess had finally consummated their marriage, telling them every little detail. And despite having an entire hotel floor to himself, Woman’s Day hears Sam had time to escape to a strip club, getting lap dances until almost dawn. He also reportedly lost his wedding ring during the shenanigans, which producers weren’t happy about.…

The simmering tension between Cyrell and Martha reportedly comes to a head with an explosive physical confrontation, and now Cyrell confirms the pair are definitely not friends. “I think Martha is as fake as the fake t * ts she’s got!” she tells Woman’s Day. Hinting at their looming spat, the 29-year-old adds, “Look, you’ll end up seeing a lot of people’s characteristics shortly.” And it’s not just Martha, 30, who enrages Cyrell. She’s equally hateful of Michael, 27. “I’m friends with all the grooms except Martha’s b ** ch-ass husband. He doesn’t have any balls. He should have the decency to call her out.”…

The Cambridges’ royal hound AMANDA SAYS The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s trusted dog Lupo has been with the family since he was a puppy and just loves everyone, from the kitchen hands to the guards. I feel he is particularly close to Prince George. Lupo is a very chatty dog, very intuitive and takes his role very seriously. He never looks at his family as royalty as that means absolutely nothing to him. Lupo loves car rides and is often taken by Prince William to see the horses. He tells me he thinks of Prince Charles as a slightly odd but wonderful fellow who laughs a lot and absolutely adores his grandchildren. Lupo likes the garden and often stops to chat to the gardeners. He loves Duchess Meghan and…

When he left a courthouse in Manhattan on February 7, the Godfather great attempted to cover his face with two newspapers before spitting the dummy when he realised his driver wasn’t waiting for him in the correct spot. “He totally lost his cool,” comments an onlooker on the star’s expletive-laden tirade. “The stress of this court battle is clearly getting the better of him.” The feuding pair are fighting over custody of their daughter Helen Grace, seven. “Tensions between them have been growing.

Radio listeners tuned into an interesting surprise when host Brendan Fevola underwent a vasectomy while  recording the Fifi, Fev & Byron radio show recently.

Byron has never seen me so vulnerable,” 38-year-old Brendan said as he lay on the operating table.

She puts on a very tough persona on the show, but it seems cracks are starting to show in Ines’ hard exterior. Sources tell Woman’s Day the legal assistant isn’t coping with the negative backlash she’s been getting from viewers.

Psychological support is readily available.”…

SWIM BETWEEN THE FLAGS There are countless people who swim outside the flags. Maxi would like to reiterate: they are there for a reason! “It’s an area that’s been identified by lifeguards to be free of rips and dangerous currents,” he says. “Like Grandpa Bill in Maxi The Lifeguard says, ‘It’s not rocket science!’” NEVER SWIM ALONE Even if your kids are A-grade swimmers, they still need supervision. “Make sure your kids always swim with a friend or sibling,” says Maxi. “And that you always know where they are in the water.” WATCH THE WATER BEFORE YOU SWIM “Take five minutes before anyone gets in the water to look at the conditions.

There’s been a noticeable absence on the Studio 10 panel since she left, but Denise Scott is returning to screens like you’ve never seen her before – getting her groove on to nab the Dancing With The Stars trophy. “It’s certainly a lot more physical than my most recent project, which had me lying on my bed watching the entire series of The Good Wife while crocheting a hexagon blanket and drinking gin and tonic,” the 63-year-old comedian tells Woman’s Day. “I wish it hadn’t taken the sheer terror of having to dance in front of a million people on live TV to get me up off the couch and moving again but that’s the truth.” Denise says the gig came as a huge surprise, considering she has no dancing…
